Eggyhead, w Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake Is Now Being Playtested, Says Series Creator
@Eggyhead@kbin.social avatar

I will never get over how illogical “HD-2D” is as a moniker for this style.

Fiivemacs, w Payday 3 free Legacy Heists update out now, includes a new skill line, and more

The main thing I'm confused about is why they didn't include some of what they'd worked on for Payday 2. Like, it has a genuinely decent VR but it's just not present (I guess they've "hinted" at it).

Thjoth, w Unity fire 265 people and end agreement with VFX studio Wētā FX in company "reset"

Maybe letting EA's greediest and least competent CEO run your company for nine years is bad for the company's overall health, who knew?

TwilightVulpine, w Cult of the Lamb pledges to embrace its smutty community with a suitably sultry new update

It's funny that in a game about demonic cults and blood sacrifices this is somehow considered unusually controversial.

Pons_Aelius,

Is it really that surprising?

20 years ago The Hot coffee scandal was massive.

Allowing fully clothed humping in a game where you could beat and rob sex workers (and just kill random people) was seen as a massive scandal.

kayjay,

In the US, extreme violence has always been a lot more accepted than nudity. Which really says a lot about what kind of values the society has when completely natural human biology is shunned and anti-social destructive behavior isn’t.

TwilightVulpine,

That's true, but blasphemous content created a lot more controversy than sheer violence. I remember when D&D books were getting burned because parents thought it was satanist.

Cult of the Lamb is explicitly demonic and yet it's still the possible addition of sex that is creating all this hubbub. Personally I think it's going to be about as explicit as The Sims at most, getting in a sleeping bag and them some shaking and effects.

Thjoth,

Cult of the Lamb was and still is massively controversial among evangelicals and other extremely religious/Christian people since it's so blasphemous. The falling number of Christians in the US combined with the echo chamber effect on the Internet just (ironically) means all the religious rage doesn't leak out and permeate all of society like it used to.

I recently finished the game for the first time and was thinking about to get Phantom Liberty extension too. Now I have to wait a bit longer. BTW in the article this part:

To ensure everyone knows it's not kidding, it even threw in a little fire emoji.

The fire emoji. It makes everything believable. xD

I feel betrayed, as I purchased and played through the game with 2.0 update.

@theodewere@kbin.social avatar

Patch 5 also includes improved inventory access, allowing you to manage the inventory of all companions from one single UI, regardless of whether they’re currently in the active party.

that's a nice one

I'm temporarily staving it off by playing two other RPGs.

Ganondorf, w Sonic Superstars' Sales Were 'Slightly Weaker' Than Sega Had Anticipated
@Ganondorf@kbin.social avatar

Kind of seems silly to buy any game developed by Sonic Team these days. They are either half-baked ideas (Sonic with a sword? Sonic as a werewolf?) or glitchy messes with repetitive, cheap gameplay (Frontiers, Lost World). They seem to rarely learn from previous mistakes or grow as a development team, similar to Gamefreak. Both studios are sustained by name recognition.

TwilightVulpine,

As much as I'm very critical of both these studios, that's really downplaying Sonic Frontiers. It was puzzling that they decided to go for a realistic style while having floating platforms everywhere, but that was a competent game that a lot of people enjoyed. I wouldn't even call it glitchy, playing it lately I didn't see a single one. Maybe it had some glitches on release, but unfortunately this is commonplace these days.

Ganondorf,
@Ganondorf@kbin.social avatar

Maybe it had some glitches on release

I haven't heard much about it as of late and won't comment on its current state, but when it first came out it was a glitchy mess. Several reviewers mentioned how glitchy it was and docked it points. dunkey made a whole video showcasing glitches and odd design choices. It's a step in the right direction, so they deserve credit, but that doesn't change its shortcomings at launch.

Pratai, w Netflix has landed The Grand Theft Auto Trilogy

No.

wolfshadowheart, w Lethal Company smashes player record, retains top spot on Steam
@wolfshadowheart@kbin.social avatar

It's a fun game. Part of its strength is the freedom it gives the players, I was playing with friends last night and we were having a blast. It's that mix of Phasmophobia fear and fun exploring.

I personally am not as big of fan of open random lobbies which is why I don't continue to play Phasma or likely this game, but they are great with friends. Excited for a VR version if they can make it work :)

ampersandrew, w Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty Passes 4.3 Million Sales - IGN
@ampersandrew@kbin.social avatar

Back of the napkin math says they more than broke even on their $80M investment into the game post-launch. I enjoyed the game at launch (which I know wasn't necessarily the norm), and I largely enjoyed the expansion. Unfortunately, this is what I have to scratch my FPS campaign itch these days, but it's still a pretty good one of those combined with a pretty good RPG. It would especially be nice to see them up the ante on the RPG aspects, because next to Baldur's Gate 3 this year, you don't get anywhere near the same sense of freedom and creativity.

wolfshadowheart,
@wolfshadowheart@kbin.social avatar

I also enjoyed the game on release, I had very few bugs and the ones I did encounter I was able to work around in various ways. The most memorable one was a bug where killing the enemies would prevent the next objective from being scannable, preventing it from continuing and completion. Everything else was pretty minimal and I was able to 100% the game. Post game I spent modding which I also got a lot of enjoyment out of a little over 200 hours total in the game.

Haven't been able to get to Phantom Liberty yet, and I haven't started a new playthrough for the update be has I'm attached to my save (which is silly lol). I'll get to it.

I feel you on the lack of compelling FPS games these days though. Like Dishonored, but with guns!
